The 8th Nordic Workshop on Supplier Relationships (NoW) will be hosted by the University of Vaasa, Finland. This workshop is an informal gathering of junior and senior researchers from the Nordic countries who are interested in studying supplier relationships, supplier relationship management, and supplier networks. The primary aim is to discuss ongoing research and to develop manuscripts at various stages of completion.

All participants are expected to engage actively as both contributors and reviewers. Sufficient time will be allocated for presentations as well as in-depth discussions of individual papers. Additionally, the workshop seeks to facilitate networking and the development of new research ideas in the field of supplier relationships. Doctoral students working in this area are  encouraged to participate.

We invite submissions of extended abstracts (approximately three pages) to the organizers no later than March 9th, 2025. A developed manuscript, which will be shared with the group prior to the meeting, is expected by May 4th, 2025. Each participant will also act as the main discussant for another participant’s paper.
